I have a FO minx harness that i have managed to bend the hook up slightly on... enough so that occasionally it unhooks on me...
I have tried putting it in the vice and hitting it gently with the hammer with no real luck, so i thought id ask if anyone has any experience or ideas with this... just incase i manage to damage it somehow...
cheers
Take it back to where you bought it from, that shouldnt happen at all - its a Safety fault that could land you in deep ***t if it unhooks in a launch area...
They should be able to get a replacement bar for you or a stronger model one to keep us all safe 
If your still living in the land of "Far Far Away" I mean Albany 
put a picture of the bar up - someone may have one laying about ??
Or temporarily:
On the Donkey Bit - just bang a bit of wood dowel or any hard tubing up to where it sits (pulled vertically) against the hook. Only use a short piece so either side has flex to get in and out of the hook easy...
Hope this helps :)
My mystic Warrior hook was very shallow and could unhook easily. I tried tapping gently with a hammer. It barely shifted so I ended up using a lump hammer and bashing the living daylights out of the thing. Eventually it bent to a better shape and I have no concerns as to the strength of it. If you have no luck replacing with the manufacturer don't be scared to give it a solid pounding.
Which I never experienced while using my Dakine Harness.

All fixed, managed to place the hook over a peice of timber and wedge it in the vice, placed a adjustable spanner on each end and just bend it back (took a bit of effort) but no smacking with the hammer needed.
